'Blocks of this size almost never come up in Forest Lake. After 34 years with its original owners, this one finally has.' - Saeed Moghaddam
Some homes are measured in square metres. This one is better measured in summers - backyard cricket running until the light fades, the bounce of a basketball under the hoop, kids cannonballing into the freeform pool, while the grown-ups relax in the shade of the covered entertaining area. Tucked up a long private driveway on an elevated 1,836m² block, with Forest Lake Lions Park just across the road, this all-on-one-level home has been cared for by the same family since it was built in 1992. For the first time in 34 years, it's your turn.
Step inside to a formal lounge anchored by a fireplace, a room made for winter evenings and unhurried conversation. A few stairs up, the living opens out: kitchen, dining, casual living and a bar area with its own sink all share one generous space, so whoever's cooking is never out of the conversation. There's bench space in abundance, an electric cooktop and an InSinkErator for easy clean-up. Outside, the covered entertaining area under the pergola has its own servery, a dedicated spot for drinks, platters and the barbecue spread, so the party can happily run outdoors all afternoon.
A long hallway leads to the bedrooms, each with a ceiling fan and plantation shutters. Bedrooms two, three and four all look out over the manicured front garden and share a family bathroom with a spa bath - just the thing after a long week. The main bedroom shares that same leafy outlook along with a walk-through robe, an ensuite with dual basins and a private courtyard of its own. The practical side is well covered too - split system air conditioning in selected areas, 24 solar panels, a roof restored five years ago, an alarm system, huge storage and an extra-large garage, with side access beyond the garage opening straight into the backyard for the mower, the bikes and every weekend project in between. And when the working week calls, the Park & Ride at Richlands train station is within five minutes' drive.
